@RPGuy96, MGS was NEVER BIG in Japan. Surprised?
and GTA series also were NEVER BIG in Japan. Again Surprised?
As i said BEFORE - DIFFERENT TASTES.

OK, now About ATTACH rates of SMG and other SM games in Japan:
http://www.vgchartz.com/swlaunch.php?reg1=Japan&game1=Super+Mario+World+-+SNES&reg2=Japan&game2=Super+Mario+64+-+N64&reg3=Japan&game3=Super+Mario+Galaxy+-+Wii&weeks=100

First of all, the selling trend is lower for SMG.
Second, Wii need to reach those 80-100 mln. which are GAMERS, not casuals non-gamers.

Comparing hardcore/casual gamers vs hardcore/casual gamers + casual non-gamers, is not the best thing to show ATTACH rate.

DO YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND, THAT CASUAL NON-GAMERS ARE NOT SAME PEOPLE AS CASUAL GAMERS?
